Sins of the fathers  - Karen Liebreich invites us to draw comparisons across the centuries with her account of paedophile priests in 17th-century Italy, Fallen Order - Miranda France 5/22/04  "Fallen Order: A History" by Karen Liebreich, Atlantic....The Piarists began as a religious order....by 1646 the order was discredited, and banned by Pope Innocent X....Stefano Cherubini, headmaster of the Naples school, who threatened to destroy the order if allegations of his abuse of children were made public."   http://books.guardian.co.uk/reviews/history/0,6121,1221970,00.html


Stanley Milgram's Experiment "a psychologist at Yale University, conducted a study focusing on the conflict between obedience to authority and personal conscience....In the experiment, so-called "teachers" (who were actually the unknowing subjects of the experiment) were recruited by Milgram. They were asked administer an electric shock of increasing intensity to a "learner" for each mistake he made during the experiment. The fictitious story given to these "teachers" was that the experiment was exploring effects of punishment (for incorrect responses) on learning behavior. The "teacher" was not aware that the "learner" in the study was actually an actor - - merely indicating discomfort as the "teacher" increased the electric shocks.  When the "teacher" asked whether increased shocks should be given he/she was verbally encouraged to continue. Sixty percent of the "teachers" obeyed orders to punish the learner to the very end of the 450-volt scale! No subject stopped before reaching 300 volts!" http://www.cba.uri.edu/Faculty/dellabitta/mr415s98/EthicEtcLinks/Milgram.htm
